Recorder Readiness

Kickoff, supplement, or reinforce your existing classroom recorder method with these engaging games, worksheets, and activities that invite customized learning. This hands-on toolkit isolates three distinct elements for building music literacy through recorder practice: rhythm, pitch, and technique. Start with each alone, then combine two at a time, and finally fully synthesize all three with ten culminating read-and-play melodies. Danielle’s creative, outside-of-the-box approach is so effective and so fun! Includes templates for several teacher-made manipulatives, puzzles, flashcards, and more. Recommended for grades 2–5.
